Default magnets on microwave

i have an over the stove microwave that has on side exposed( there is no
upper cabint on one side ). if i put some strong magnets on the open
metal side will they interfere with the micrwave or somehow damage it ?
thanks, cj


Your microwave already has some fairly powerful magnets inside which are
part of what makes it work. It seems unlikely that sticking even the
best neodymium magnets you can buy onto the case could cause any damage.
